Personally I think Vinton will take the game by at least 6-8 points.

Curious why you think that? VC will have a very difficult time in the front court if they play next Friday like they did tonight. If VC handles the ball against McClain the way they did tonight, McClain will eat them up.

gahs4ever, this is why they play the game.

On to spring sports. Winter is still bowing its ugly head..

#15 is Lucas Polley. He is a Sophmore and probably teams MVP. #50 Zollo is a freshman. McClain's reserve team ended season with only one loss and freshmen were undefeated. Good foundation for the next few years. Tiger fans did not have high expectations for this year and most would of been happy with 13-14 win season. Being 19-3 and playing in District Championsip game was probably unexpected for this young team.

I dont think VC will have trouble handling the ball against McClain, because I think WCH played tougher man to man D than McClain.

The reason VC had trouble bringing the ball up is because the Blue Lions pressured the heck out of the ball in stretches.

Had they played defense the whole game the way they did in the 4th quarter, Court House would still be playing.

I like VC by 8

Based on the scoring (FG and FT made and %), this game was extremely close. Looks like GM hit a few threes to help them as well.

Galliant effort by Gallia. You did the SEOAL proud. Congrats to GM as they advance once again.

GO CAVS!!! REFUSE TO LOSE!!!
